LAFAYETTE, Ind. – The polls will be open from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday in Lafayette, as voters help set city council races for November.

As of noon Monday, the final chance to vote early ahead of Tuesday’s primary Election Day, 523 people had voted Lafayette’s city council, mayoral and city clerk contests, according to the Tippecanoe County elections office. County Clerk Julie Roush has said she expects Tuesday’s primary to be small.

Here’s what you need to know as you head to the polls:

ONE RACE IN PLAY: Russell Bridges, a Lafayette bartender and political newcomer, is challenging Democratic incumbents Lon Heide, Kevin Klinker and Nancy Nargi for the party’s three nominations for at-large seats on the city council. At-large council members are elected by the entire city. The three top vote-getters in the Democratic primary will be on the Nov. 5 general election ballot. No Republicans or independent candidates have filed in that race, though they’ll have time to do that after the primary.

VOTING ON TUESDAY, MAY 7: Polls will be open from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. in these locations, all in Lafayette:

HOW TO VOTE: Registered voters in Lafayette are eligible to vote in the primary. Voters may ask for either a Democratic or Republican ballot, but not both. Voters must bring an ID to vote.
